excitement and relief is despised palestinians hitting home to the north of the 15 months of fullest displacements by the israeli military. but you can see from these live scenes from oliver sheet road in the past few hours, palestinians have been returning on foot through this roof. that comes off the 10s of thousands of palestinians spent a 2nd night on the streets waiting for his ready forces to let them cross. then it's a room card on many a disparate to return home, even if all they will find is rob of. so just oh no, we want to see a family. i want to see my mom and dad. we haven't seen them for 15 months. it's a long time. we're going now. i haven't been with my family for a year and a half. i want to go back to see them. we're tired. i want to go back because of

city and we're not coming back here. i'm also colored to his head l for she'd street and to speaking to palestinians. returning to northern garza, i'm talking to oklahoma last year. this really is where i thought the thing is, are making their way back home. the love the service to leave behind and why don't we all, what's missing here is a scene or me. you and i've seen all have been this on joy uh, thousands of on us to news are finally coming back home full of a saw something vase to making their home for the lovely girls last with thousands of on us. it is at the moment, are watching the cost on the road to the law, the god. let's do a min them and the new and i'm coming back from come eunice, aren't you? and he was very difficult, very tiny so that i can solve a couldn't infinity. i'm yeah, i know, but we've been sleeping in the streets for 3 days without food covers always in the bathrooms, but an hour and horse a shiver before pop up for the water. since we were waiting for these ready

occupation forces to allow us to cross, they fight on women and children. but we held our ground as we went, adamant to return to the north, wind j, which the we have been sleeping on the road for days. as soon as these radio condition forces pulled out, we started to head back to the north. i am on cloud 9. i am very happy of all of this variable have live and uh, shows those skills and on the harsh conditions it is finally all. well it is finally victory for the fall as soon is here on this is quick on this road fondest in is on reclaiming. a history, the claims that are placed on the claiming the of you shop as they are watching the net. so we can put a door and they turn to the homelands and return to the houses

home and meet with the family and friends. so those families, those, those last time it is who well separated from their loved ones on finally making god was that somebody is, is all the for the bonus to indians was no, i just need uh from unless you the street palestine. you're gonna bring in abraham o' kelly, who joins us now from kansas city and to abram. can you just give us an update if people actually started arriving, where you are in the north now and exactly what is going to be there when they do arrive? yes many palestinians arrive in it to me, so i'm gonna see the street making their way to the northern governors for a band. what will they find is a mass, the devastation inflicted to all the neighborhoods?

here in the northern parts of the got a strip, we used to be both of them round the surgeons that place us in the beginning and on this from the pro tools you decide to go from that. but i, they made it cheap for us is, and the mattress devastation that we will find you will find no place to stay in because their houses have been completely destroyed, especially the only thing governor with sir has gone said has been conducted to 100. the days of brutal destruction, the lift, all the area completely destroyed. the civilians are bringing their belongings and bringing their sense with them and or just to shut up chance. i'm problem durable. they're destroyed housing here in northern. got it straight, but civilians are great handers happiness as they realize the level of these moments of power for all

chelsea to witness. they have been waiting for this moment so long now they are, they really were united with their families. and yes, we're here are talking about this is united situation and the destruction, and that you're not infrastructure time the pipelines and then the, you know, roads will make it very difficult for these unions to sustain the, the lives that the wish for the palestinians are determined and they have a good determinations that they can rebuild again, their homes in the north. so these allocate before sidney, the slaves, and the in the beginning or the war. what will make it again, the boom, they're destroyed. so home in the, in parts of the goddess strange uh, a low and they continue in the car cuz the dog has french and really

underscore around and uh say the smoke is an organ gun. this frame is specially normally we jump on the right. where's a 5 lines have be completely damaged and civilians can access it? yeah, that's probably i think a whole lot are due to the mass devastation is listed to the area might be for any occupation forces. but civilians are going to have any time. joy of realizing gains off or 15 months from the genocide, the place where we are, they are again in no regardless frame to work and the suffering will continue in terms of rebuild them the their lives and getting back to normal. life needs to do the job will come back to massive investigation inflicted to all the areas in

northern part of this trip, but they will rebuild again a brand, as we've been talking about, the north was effectively cut off for the last 3 months, very, to who was able to get in, can you just give us a bit of an update now, briefly on how much i eat, how much food water, medical aid has been able to get into the north of the strip. as we see tens and tens of thousands of people within their a yes, the 80 low is sufficient for hundreds of thousands of displays that we'll see. what are we tear, but as they go by the a, the low will just get the bitter and may be the info nation. now the organization will adjust to some form and the push for more a in the standing, a influx tend to holding douglas freight the, the district needs all 100000 tablets the of the number

a number of the trucks. i'm not be surprised if by any of that, but i mean, we're going to the international organization, but it will improve as days go by the house or the roots in tons of thousands of fair californians from southern far into northern parts of the god. josh is tripped . thank you so much cheaper than uh, a room. oh kelly for us the in kansas city. we're going to bring in some i'll miss hollow is and i'll just hear a journalist and a correspondent who's been many years in gaza. thanks very much for joining us here . first of all, can you just put today in context for us? how significant is it that the palestinians are able to attend for the 1st time in 15 months, back to the north of the strip? yes, it's a significant, important historical and sympathetic woman for the palestinians. this is the 1st

time since 1948 palestinians who have been forced out of their homes out on the deadlines, managed to get back to their homes and land despite the destruction. and despite this genocide, as we witnessed from this and we stay with this thing from this morning, people are happy shooting, despite the know that they are going back to destroyed homes. but this is a very important moment and gives us many messages from gaza to outside. and secondly, which is very important because the goals of this war that when is it a launch this war, they booked goals for the, for this war 1st to evacuate. the people from north of gaza strip and the queue by the north of gaza strip and to destroy homeless. now of the 15 months, we witnessed that it was comply with the terms of this agreement to accept that

attends of the, of the palestinians to the north and to negotiate with him us on the seats for you . so with the, with the it is. so it's very important for the palestinians and a very important moment. and we assume that negotiations is around. for the last 50 months, they refused to accept for that attends for that if you do it for the despairs, but a spinning is it for themselves. and then or, and when they accepted in the fit of the stages of the negotiations, they both conditions. but today we witnessed edit them without, with no conditions. so again, it's asked to come moment and simply because, well, can you, as we've been watching tens of thousands, probably more than a 100, a 1000 returning north and pretty remarkable, as i waited for 2 days to be able to do so. we've been talking to a correspondence unless and the you way and about just how little there is for them

when they do return there. because we've seen this picture of the last 3 months, that was everything has been systematically destroyed in northern gaza. how big a concern is it now that another process could potentially uninstalled because it's just simply not food? no, i know was a non medical supply was to actually help to rebuild their lives. according to this times of this agreement ceased by agreements between is what are like how much that's what the mediators in the agreement and the terms there is an acceptance by is it or it is to allow for aids for tense and for uh, what do you need uh, for example, food medics for all does this trip and accepted at least $600.00 the trucks every day to and $30000.00. when we, with this over the last week, the 1st week of disagreement with this. and uh, yeah, and uh, the trucks managed to get into goals. mm hm. yes. but the needs are bigger and it's

really, there isn't a crisis, it's increasing and decreasing. and this is what's a pressure on all sides. and always close and bodies on all the international as a part these are related to this issue to disclose is the what the rest of them is it all to deal with the consequences of this unified and the causes. yes, the causes is not, will not. and assume we would miss this, it crisis in different stages and then different ways. but this is what was very important for the about us thing in this by this a crisis and discharge the food and destructions. the, the don't accept the transfer outside of gaza monday with the tenement to go back to their homes despite it's destroyed. and despite, didn't to deal with, mike will not find that homes. but i was listening to one of the palestinians, well managed to get back to bells or this morning. he said yes, my home was destroyed and i went bought a tent on my home. this is not very important moment and much but other than being

transferred out to him doesn't. yeah, obviously a remarkable isn't it that i'm going to, i'm going to, i'm going to camp in the rubble of my all time. that's the, the lives that people are willing to go through to restate a claim to the land. can you just explain what's going to happen next? obviously, if even on a significant die like to die historic day, people very quickly turn to what is going to happen in the near future? who's going to run gas? how is it going to be run? who gets to make those decisions? now we are the most important thing, know, it's like the following, what's the other stages and with other times of this agreement? so after this acceptance of going, you think of the people to go back to the step. now we are witnessing the continue . what are the continuing of the, complying with the terms of this agreement of the homeless yesterday disclosed very

important information to go to the visitor 80 hostages and gaza bitterly the number that the 25 out of the 53 is the 80 hostages, and the present as ingles of the auto life and last week the at least 7 of the life is there 8 is that the and 2 times the 4 is really sort woman. so just and the 1st time was if, if the is really set it as a civil, as a billions woman. i know we are expecting that at least of 18 is it really is there is a life on an in the coming in the coming days and the coming weeks. so every saturday we will with ms. swab or for by this thing is, is really, isn't this in garza and the from the business either from, from homeless and the, from israel. and this is would reach to us for the week 6 to release the whole is there is hostages of, from gaza and also the is about a city and it,

but isn't as if from those are a presence of thought of that we would miss the swab over the bodies of, from the uh, according to how much uh, information they have. and this is stage 8, but uh, is there any but this they will release them and its web for that it needs a file has been and women's and the children are imprisoned. and israel, so this is regarding what will happen regarding the prisoners. and we was following other terms of disagreements regarding the opening for the crossing. this is mainly off a heck of those things to bit the palestinians, one and your people to get out of garza to, to, to take the treatments out of sight of goza. and this is very important for the palestinians, the opening of the listing, which is the link with, with the, with international and with outside the ghost strip. so this is regarding the terms, but the other thing which is important for the bonus thing is, is the opening for,

for all the crossing the, with the aides and what that needs for the constructions for the buildings and making their life easier. then happening over the last 15 months. yeah, thank you so much for explaining a little that breaking it down for us. come on this, how we really appreciate you coming in today. thank you. good. well, let's take a closer look at the geography of this for 12, north gallons, a pill, us any is a crossings, and it's a room car to a full kilometer wide miller trees on, which is around night when the war began. cutting off the north from the rest of gaza as well as now opening up our her shade. roads that runs along the coast line, all the strips of palestinians. one thing to travel north on foot only. now another major road saw a thing has been opened for those going by car, with vehicles, subjects to inspection by members of a private us security company. honey mcmurray joins us from oliver. she'd road that is just south of and it's room car to honey. uh its i think it's been about 4 hours

now since the that's comfortable with was open where you are people still streaming north the absolutely on. we can see the number increasing by the hour. now there are people who work in parts of out in the last the part of the southern part of the 7 days. trends area. 5 been displaced for the past, been heard about the crossing, then let's not forget that being largely disconnected from the internet, then no electricity in some parts of it got stripped. peebles, some people just doing the past the hour or so about the, the opening of the crossing, the slip last night, knowing that it's not going to happen and did not get the update until the past hour. so that's why the a lot of people keep coming in and we're still seeing the excitement seeing the happen in the, in the, the joy of people going back to their homes in the northern parts and gauze and cities. so it's unimportant on his step for them and essential one to rebuild their charter life. but we know they are, they are, they're aware of many of the challenges ahead of them that do that. the destroyed

homes that damage the facilities and the damage, the roads and object facilities, all part of the challenge there to them. but for now, their joy is, is dominated by the feeling that they are going back to where do, where force into displacement of the past. 15 months to a very particular home, they were forced out of them, they're going back to them and they, together, as we keep hearing from people, they're going to rebuild their life. but we're still getting more reaction or from people than just this moment. we ran through one of the, one of the familiar faces deluxe, the hospital doctor in the thought it was that a volunteer with the pleasure of scientific is the chief of surgery and have seen it all in the past 15 months. the how much it's a historic mom is were powerless. then what do you say that a, a lot of miles. first of all, i want to congratulate the policy of people the people because the on this little suspicious day, the day over ton of the 50 months, a possible displacement of hardship. suffering of all kinds. or they have finally

been allowed to return to their homes to try to find some semblance of life and rebuild the future. of course uh they've been through a lot and uh, i also got already my organization, but only organization is out to around together and help these people 15 months of the space and you've seen it all inside the hospital. the difficult the health care system already destroyed by these really monitoring the months ahead of us. what's needed? what's the priority for palestinian? now i, i, that's correct. i've seen the, the particular the destruction of a civil society here. i've seen the hospitals destroyed homes, destroyed, schools, destroyed, lives, destroyed more importantly than all of that. there are thousands of people in need of complex surgery that needs to be applied to address those needs. it needs to have planned to rebuild homes, rebuild universities, goals, infrastructure that's been worked out. i tell you what's not going to be acceptable

to these people as possible evacuation. so the solution lies in rebuilding, nothing deportation. doctor bar. thank you so much. thank you for your service and thank you for your help and support. so i learned from someone who was inside hospital inside health care facilities have seen it all being all the damage, all the destruction, and the need for bid or medical care inside the hospice on something that we know it's one of the challenges ahead of many of this way as people, when they go back to the bar that every now an area that does not have any hospitals left or any proper health care in the home is now does the rebuilding will start soon. i will address these important issues for people. i also want to ask you briefly how closely is the, is there any military actually monitoring what is happening the along the corridor or other surveillance, drones or anything along those lines? well in the past couple hour, we could hear the just coming from far away on

a very high level by another very high all that you with the drones monitoring the move and of people here on the rest of the road that we don't necessary for departments was an entire military base for those really amount of the operate was occupied by the rid of forces. they built the base with all of that, not the. 6 the equipment that the army needed, they put a surveillance system. they, they developed, this won't work ports at the vicinity of it to prevent people from coming near. that made it more of a depth prep for people who were to go there. but as of now, as we want to started to cross the road, we understand that there they are. there's really monetary pulled into an area that as far as from where people are, are the crossings do? so the only way to keep monitoring people to through the surveillance system that is set up by those very monetary from a distance or from above by the, the, the blowing, the drones are monitoring the whole move. and when they're sent over, there is more of it on the other side of the road. so like i did road work,

cars aren't expected to cross that point. and 3 point that's where you're going to be subjected to inspection by or almost a 100 of security personality from a private american and private security company been deployed at the. * so it has been built in our system and put state plans, those all i have the roads for cards to move on. and this is part of the security arrangements by these really monetary as well as by the security private company, as well as some arabic elements. and that's thank you so much, honey. honey must mood for us there on a lower sheet road. the ending of the to room, colorado is part of a deal announced by kata, a key media here between israel and to mazda of castile told us rarely media. i'm also handle is all about we've heard and 2 of the captives before friday. it's more of a slower con, isn't jordan's capital amount because these ready government and palestinian authority has been indulgence era from reporting in israel as well as the occupied

west bank nor. first of all, i want to get a sense of how this the last few hours with these remarkable sayings of hundreds of thousands of palestinians returning to northern gaza. how is that being viewed in as well? the most important to say off to this quote from the kata i sent you sent out on saturday just i was late to the it's ready 5 minutes. his office then sends out a statement, agree that they are going to go ahead with this deal to open a part of the next or in cordele. i'm finding that through these tens of thousands of palestinians who have been suffering the cause of the hold up in the deal. it's important to say it's all being centered around. one is ready out. she's being held captive already a hoot out by islamic jihad. so it's not meant to have, haven't been involved in these negotiations as how mass has been and they consider

it had to be a soldier from the beginning. however, israel says she disability and should it be released as the best at site the 2nd batch and assess phase instead of 4 is ready. so just where release they wanted civilians then soul just then sick and wounded and those who have perished during the full. now her family, her relatives have spoken up, saying this is an incredibly calling complex and worrying time. and that just essentially waiting for her to be released. so she will be released as time to discuss that with another is ready so that i can back up and also another on named preston. and then they will go ahead with this field of state to daddy biologist, or clint corresponded in the studio where they will be releasing 3 people on a weekly basis, up until the 6 week. then they will release the whole team. this is going to be an exchange for more than 1900 palestinians, detainees and prisoners books. of course,

the family members office being helped captive happy waiting in tel aviv walk for 15 months ready. that'd be in protesting on a weekly basis, trying desperately to put pressure on benjamin destiny off, whose coalition to strike this deal. now they did stop protesting for a couple of weeks that's been small protests going on some blocking outs and streets in tell a beef. but they went back to it on saturday evening. they want to see this go ahead, not just the fast phase of the 33, but more being released and those who have power school. so they release in the 2nd phase coming onto the fat face. but it's also important to say with a net. so in cargile, it is what has now finally kept that process a deal that they from rashid street and a couple of kilometers to the east. they have taken down much the military infrastructure. they have withdrawal and much of the minute treat from dash, but they will see at the supposed to see

a full withdrawal on the 22nd day of the deal. and as a correspondence said earlier, we will then on the 42nd day following into the 2nd phase of the deal. see the federal withdrawal often from the what's being known as a philadelphia card, told us in self concepts in russia, along the egyptian border to see the fullest ready withdrawal from that bus. as i said before, this is an incredibly tents and fragile do. and as you've seen just from the past few days, you know, just one person can read a, have this gentleman of effect affect everyone. and this, this effect, obviously, we've seen policy is paying the price. and of course, the account is also paying the price of this dispute, and a thank you so much of a little bit this laura con for us in a month with joining us, i once again is you to is the luciana is a car. thank you very much for being here. it goes politics, professor counts i university. of course. can you just give us an idea of what

we're hearing about the joy and the hope from palestinians as they've attended was . but then we're listening to laura there and hear about the tension and, and just how tense and fred job the deal is. how do you think things are going to play out in the, in the days and we could hit, we would say how both are often to come in a few days. but of course, the people is happy to come back to their home or the remains or of their homes. we need to remember that the north of gus, it has to be on their heavy and bombardment on the seas. so the people who is hoping to reach out to their places of they are still alive, but they're all standing, but the most of them they would find that their, their homes would be destroyed. and the, with the need to that they felt leaving, again intense until the rebuild. the, the reconstruction of gas are, is happening, which is going to happen in the defense of face. but 1st, to reach the, we need to finalize the 1st one. we need to see all the hostages, the release of the exchange of prisoners. i'm waiting to see that we do a lot of your study forces. i'm going to, the 2nd phase of,

i'm going to the end of the single phase. we keep here and the these can be the for any time because of any detailed the, the, we not the agree on along the whole, the whole process. yeah. as we've, as we've saying, uh over the last couple of days and the delay in, people being allowed to hit north. a lot of people talking about what happens next . who do you think we do? you think the sticking points are going to be in terms of who actually needs to come in and, and really run things from here. and israel's role in allowing that to happen or not as the case might be wrong, but that's a problem i sent over by enforce eastern hosted responsibility to do something that allows people to lead the lives the day. and the issue that allows you might have an aide and they should allow any kind of supply, but this needed to have a normal life for the people that believe here. but us, many, many people have, have been saying the things long time ago. it's really, it's probably decisive,

immediate, a way for an ice in this a. so anything that would be allowed to enter to reconstruct the gas on that would be use it as a political liberties or even us it as a weapon to allow people to rebuild their, their life. so not so if our role is for them and they'll hear because they'll go by and force the problem. it's who's pushing this. i have to do what they have to do. we know that is for the best not to care about dicey. see i to g ever solutions, they didn't care about them at all. this weren't there now and they didn't care about buy them price. so now it's inside from minus 2 to do something or at least to see them to sign something with see if this brace or from time is going on that right away or is just a way to me which is something for the future. yeah. and we can just stick with with the trump for that for the moment.
